Semiya Saggubiyyam Payasam ~ Vermicelli Sago Kheer

BM #76 Week 4 Day 3 -

I have seen my friend make this combination and loved it. So I made this for her on her birthday and enjoyed it.

It is perfect as an offering to the Lord as well.

Recipe Source a friend
Ingredients - 

Semiya / Vermicelli 1/2 cup
Sago / Saggubiyyam handful, washed and soaked for 2 hours
Milk 4 cups
Sugar 1/2 cup (adjust as per taste)
Powdered nuts 1/4 cup (I used Almonds and Cashews)

Method Of Preparation -


In a heavy bottomed pan, boil milk and add sago and semiya.

Let it come to a boil. [Cooking sago in a pressure cooker is also a great idea].

After the sago has cooked through [it becomes transparent], add sugar and powdered nuts.

Let the kheer simmer for a few minutes.

Remove from heat and garnish with nuts of your choice.

Serve warm or chilled.
